glands
Pancreas

Inner wall of the stomach ,the small intestine
and the various glands associated with the

How is food taken into our body?
The food is taken into the body
through the mouth.
The process of taking food into
the body is called ingestion.
We need hammer to break big
pieces of rock . Similarly our teeth
also help to break down food into
smaller pieces by chewing on it.
Name the two sets of teeth in human beings.
Name the parts of a tooth.

If we do not clean our teeth and mouth after
eating, many harmful bacteria also begin to
grow in it.
These bacteria break down the sugars
present from the left over food and release
acids.
These acids gradually damage the teeth. This
is called tooth decay.
If it is not treated in time it causes toothache
and in extreme cases results in tooth loss.
So clean the teeth with brush or dental floss
At least twice a day and rinse the mouth after
every meal.
Our mouth has the salivary glands which
secrete saliva.
The saliva breaks down the starch into
sugars.
